New Business Startup

How Can You Start A Successful Business?

Introducing our Business Startup Package!

Approximately 50% of small businesses fail within the first 4 years, according to www.bloomberg.com
The NY Times put it best, one of the main reasons for small business failure is due to poor accounting:

“You cannot be in control of a business if you don’t know what is going on. With bad numbers, or no numbers, a company is flying blind, and it happens all of the time. Why? For one thing, it is a common — and disastrous — misconception that an outside accounting firm hired primarily to do the taxes will keep watch over the business. In reality, that is the job of the chief financial officer, one of the many hats an entrepreneur has to wear until a real one is hired.” -Jay Goltz, Small Business Owner, Journalist

It is a misconception that an outside accounting firm hired primarily to do the taxes will keep watch over your new business. That is where we differentiate ourselves from other accounting firms with the New Business, “Start It Off Right” Program.

What’s separating your business from those that fail? I have helped lots of businesses get started with the right foundation and right direction maximizing their ability to survive and thrive. Additionally, as a past Controller and CFO, I bring lots of “real” business experience to the table…not just CPA gobblygook!
